Description |
There’s plenty of things to test a person’s mettle out in the harsh Western territories. There are cattle rustlers trying to steal your stock. There are bandits looking to rob the 10:13 to Yuma. There’s all manner of critters and a desert environment looking to deal you the death card. Now, the recently-dead have started rising from prairie graves to assault the living. This town is turning into cowpies. |
